    To all the Blind tailers
    I know most people here blindly tail a lot of cappers. NOT smart guys. make your own choices. Have you ever met the person your tailing? most likely the answer is no. Yet day after day loss after loss you still come back and follow. You should be using info people give you to make your own picks. I was originally on miami and the over... good thing i changed my mind from the trends and also comments a lot of handicappers posted before game time.

    half of u guys probably got raped tonight. just looking at the popular threads I can tell a lot of people just jumped on the miami train cause everyone here was all about miami except for a select few.

    When i see threads like " im going to empty my bankroll" and shit like that i automatically know to fade who the hell is stupid enough to empty their bankroll on 1 game.

    be smart guys use this as an educational thread not as a betting tool. do your own research and make your own picks. good luck next week and i hope whoever lost today wins back their winnings this week!

    if you can't make your own bet and log on day after day for bets to place... STOP betting!

        only a few cappers had patriots or the over tonight and those cappers have MAYBE a few followers, those with a bigger following suffered. I could care less if anyone changes or not just giving them a piece of my mind in the end its their money not mine. I came up 2300 tonight so im not complaining.

          Its always your own decision on pressing the submit button. I know lots of guys tailed me on Miami and lost some coin but the smart ones know if they tail me blindly they will always win in the end. THats a guarantee because long term i dont lose in NFL or NBA. And if you dont believe me fade me blindly. I dare you.

                of course anyone that tails you will be profitable! you know me LB I participate in all your threads ever since you first started capping here! i do that because your a great capper and give great info but in the end your correct its the choice of the person whos tailing to press submit but what im trying to say is a lot of people just tail to tail cause they see your betting a lot they most likely havent even looked at any trends or anything, they just log on see what u bet and put in their bets. those people should not be doing that. what are the chances that any tailers can tail every single one of ur bets? i'd say the odds on that are very very low. everyone has a life i highly doubt anyone is sitting here every day every hour waiting for each 1 of your bets. overall you are a profitable to tail if you can tail every single 1 of your bets.

                        Really what is the difference between a blind tail and a not blind tail? Either way they are playing someone else picks so what does it matter how someone justifies not being able to cap games? Just curious. BOL

                          i remember when LB had a 100x bet. i don't think everyone who tailed could afford to put 100x on a game

                            People blind tail all the time, to call them out after this game is ridiculous . Some things can't be capped (3 special teams TD's in the start of the 2nd), you just cant fully account for that stuff. If miami had won or the under had cashed this thread would not have been created. Congrats on your win

                              Of course. There's only 2 picks but there's people here who just bet and know nothing about the 2 teams playing. They just think that because someone has big money on it they will do the same. If you can not cap games you should at least try to learn not just bet for the hell of it. Good luck to you as well

                                I understand people blind tail all the time. I am not calling them out just after this game I created this thread for the future so that maybe blind betters will actually do work and research games before they bet. Instead of just taking peoples bets.

                                Thanks good luck to you this week buddy

                                  Your post doesn't make any sense. You win a bet, so now you're going to get all preachy? ok, so I see rockaflocka made the same point.

                                  But...

                                  Why not be happy that people are "stupid" so that it causes easier lines for yourself?

                                  Furthermore, most of what you read here is just talk. These people who "back up the truck" are betting $10 per game or maybe 100 SBR points. They have to talk big because talk is all they have. Your worried about people getting pissed because they lost all their SBR points on this game lol? Generally, the more people talk, the less they have. If people really are betting $500 on a game, they wouldn't use stupid terms like "bet the bank" ect.

                                    Not talking cause I won. Did not mention me winning today as part of my argument. I only mentioned it later. I wrote this because the same people complaining they lost I see in other threads tailing people on their bets. People need to be smarter about betting or else don't bet.

                                    People really do lose a lot of money. You think everyone on this board just bets for points? In the end money is money wether it's a few dollars or few thousand. Point is to just be smart

                                    I don't try to hope theres always stupid people out there so it's easier for me to win I try to talk sense into them and help them be smarter about their money.

                                    How do you know that everything here is just talk. I highly doubt that everyone is sitting at home betting $10 a game and putting online that they bet 500$. Common man think before you start talking.

                                        lakersfan i wouldnt waste your time mate, lol @ people.. if i was backing up the truck i wouldnt be telling the world, and if i had a really solid tip i wouldnt be posting it on here either (love ya'll but not interested in losing or making other people money), li like to see peoples insights onto why there backing a team, i.e pats v fins, lots of good points for both teams, but at end of the day the stats told the story. Take the over, sit back and enjoy some Prime time ball.

                                            So what would you consider sports betting? A beneficial way to make a second income (for some their only income). Sports betting should be nothing other then a HOBBY. It shouldn't be something that people rely on to make money because at the end of the day we win some and lose some. Its sad that there are people all over this forum that rely on sports betting as an "easy way" to make money and that is by blindly tailing other people on here. If you don't know enough about the sport but some random guy on the internet says that Miami -1 is a LOCK, you'll still put money on it? Unforunately there are enough people who do that and even better pay people for picks. Bookies, Vegas, whoever it is at the end of the day do not care who the hell you are all they want is the MONEY.

                                            Sports Betting = HOBBY not a "easy way to make money"

I know lots of guys tailed me on Miami and lost some coin but the smart ones know if they tail me blindly they will always win in the end. THats a guarantee because long term i dont lose in NFL or NBA. And if you dont believe me fade me blindly. I dare you.
                                              i dont tail no one but if i wanted to tail one guy it would be this guy LB is right way more than wrong. IMO gl.

                                                I agree with your point; however, the statement above seems to contradict the moral of your message. It's my opinion that blindly fading anyone is just as 'not smart'.

                                                  Hard for me to tail anybody, at the end of the day I am the one who placed the bet.

                                                    Not true, and if they do - they do so selectively, not blindly.

                                                    Not true. If someone is actually blindly tailing a winning capper then they are smarter than most bettors since 98% of sports bettors are losers.

                                                    Are you implying that fading is better than tailing?

                                                        I don't see how anyone gets off telling another man what they should be doing for money vs. a hobby. While only a few guys are able to do this for a living that doesn't mean that everyone is not in it to make money, from doing something that they love to do. So to me that is a moot point.

                                                        Imo the title of this thread should simply be "Don't b*tch when you tail someone and loose". Preaching to people not to blindly tail is like preacing to your teenage son not to have sex. Its going to happen, it's inevitable. What you can do is get the point accross (or at least try) on why capping your own games are more beneficial. And I know that's been done before. So maybe its time to take a new angle and express to those great cappers that do win and post their picks not to let the haters get to them and that they should consider the sources. You need to have or at least develope thick skin to post your plays on a forum. My point is your not going to change the way people do things so you might as well try to mitigate the fallout instead of trying to force them not to do it.

                                                        As far as blindly tailing someone. There is a thin line between that and just tailing them. I use a combo of capping my own games, using other people picks to reaffirm mine and sometimes blindly tailing. The two formers has gotten me as many losses as the latter (never once have I complained). Should I not be betting because I blindly tail sometimes? No maybe I shouldn't be betting because I loose and am not smart enough to figure out what I need to do to win (Hyperthetically speaking). At the end of the day it really comes down to how people choose to conduct themselves. I could care less on how people choose to get their picks if I didn't have to hear b*tching and people telling other people how to manage their business.

Have you ever met the person your tailing? most likely the answer is no. Yet day after day loss after loss you still come back and follow. You should be using info people give you to make your own picks. I was originally on miami and the over... good thing i changed my mind from the trends and also comments a lot of handicappers posted before game time.

                                                            half of u guys probably got raped tonight. just looking at the popular threads I can tell a lot of people just jumped on the miami train cause everyone here was all about miami except for a select few.

                                                            When i see threads like " im going to empty my bankroll" and shit like that i automatically know to fade who the hell is stupid enough to empty their bankroll on 1 game.

                                                            be smart guys use this as an educational thread not as a betting tool. do your own research and make your own picks. good luck next week and i hope whoever lost today wins back their winnings this week!

                                                            if you can't make your own bet and log on day after day for bets to place... STOP betting!
                                                            i am doing a bit of both - reading books and trying to figure out why people pick who they pick. however if the best cappers here disagree with me i'm gonna pass. unfortunately its tough to figure these people out - for me anyway. would you care to share any tips on capping? what's the most important advice you can give any1?

                                                            for people in my position i would say if some1 helps you then pass on a few points - its a cheap price to pay for years of experience.
